Summary

This PR updates and fixes the Chinese (ch) locale files to resolve out-of-date texts and legacy mistranslations in the current SPT assets.

Context & Rationale

  • The existing Chinese locale in SPT is quite dated and contains several wrong translation entries.
  • This update ensures Chinese players have accurate, fully proofread item/quest descriptions up to EFT 1.0.5.0, while maintaining compatibility with SPT-specific quest logic.

Workflow & Sources

  1. Data Sourcing: Dumped raw locale files (items and quests) directly from EFT 1.0.5.0.
  2. Key Extraction: Wrote custom scripts to extract string keys from raw dumped files based on existing keys in SPT locale assets.
  3. Diff Analysis: Used WinMerge to compare and identify differences between current SPT files and the newly prepared files.
  4. Proofreading: Carefully proofread (basic check) all extracted string values for fitting SPT.
  5. SPT Adjustments: Adjusted quest requirement texts to align with SPT-specific quest logic (e.g., Gunsmith series, Test Drive series).

Tested locally with no missing key warnings or formatting issues.

We appreciate the effort of this PR, but the locale files under SPT_Data are dumped directly from BSG at the time the version of the client we use was active. This change of text would be better off as a mod, as we don't like to change dumped files unless necessary.

Thank you though, for your effort in opening this PR :)
